Abstract

See full text

An internal clock generation circuit according to the present invention includes a phase comparator, a shift register, a filter, a monitor circuit, and a plurality of delay lines such as first and second delay lines. The first delay line has delay steps each larger than that of the second delay line. The first delay line is first used to generate a clock minimized in phase difference with respect to an external clock. The clock signal is inputted to the second delay line to perform fine adjustment to the phase difference.
